    		Well.....Is Mandarin a language or a dialect?

    "Mandarin Chinese noun

    the dialect of Chinese spoken in Beijing and adopted as the official language for all of China."

    		I think Mandarin is covered by the page called 'traditonal Chinese' or the page called 'simplified Chinese', as it is the major and official language of China.
    In addition there are five regional Chinese tongue Wikipedia pages:
    Cantonese, Minnan, Mindong, Wu and Hakka.
